Abstract
A problem to be resolved by the invention resides in providing a multifunction analyzing apparatus for detecting a shape with high resolution and physical property information capable of not only successively reading a base arrangement from end to end but also specifying a position hybridized by known RNA with regard to a single piece of DNA elongated in one direction on a board. A microscope system of the invention is provided with a fluorescence microscope, a scanning near field microscope and a scanning probe microscope as a detecting system, the microscopes are fixed to a switching mechanism and can be moved to a position at which the various microscopes can observe the same portion of a sample by switching operation of the mechanism. The microscope system of the invention is provided with a function capable of directly detecting a shape and physical property information of one piece of DNA by the scanning probe microscope by multifunction scanning.
